Tebowing pause swept the NFL as fans mimicks Tim Tebow one knee prayer before and after the game. Denver Broncos made it to the second round of the playoff after the Patriots have to put them to rest in AFC Championship game. Linsanity lasted three weeks while Tebowmania peaks around three months. In the heat of their popularity Tim Tebow and Jeremy Lin jerseys were top sellers for weeks in their league.

Listed alongside with Lin and Tebow were two presidential candidates, some world leaders like Obama. Singers Rihanna and Adele also made it to the list. Eventhough their prominence were shortlived, they are the people who inspire us, entertain us, challenge us in their own unique way. Both Lin and Tebow also shares faith as Christians by the way.
